"I'm a huge fan of so many shows that HBO has done over the years and they let titles come to the fore and have room to breathe," he said.

"We got those scripts and to be so excited when flicking through them and when we got the job, we were over the moon."

Mr Clair had also worked on ABC's The Chaser and Hungry Beast.

"I was drawn to motion graphics about 15 years ago now. I was finishing film school and there was a lot of exciting stuff happening, especially out of the States, that was combining images in different ways, but in terms of getting into the field, it was actually the ABC," he said.

"Hungry Beast allowed me to do the work on my design. It allowed us to bring home international work and do it in Sydney.

"The internet has made the world a small place. To get work from France and so often, different places in Los Angeles and New York to access the global entertainment brands. It is really exciting.

"Hopefully this award will give us the momentum to be recognised."

The Creative Arts Emmys were awarded in Los Angeles on Saturday (US time), with the Primetime Emmy Awards to be announced on August 25.
